BCCI Plans WPL Mega Auction in November; Some Franchises Oppose Full Revamp
The Women’s Premier League (WPL) is gearing up for a shake-up. According to reports, the Board of Control for Cricket in India (BCCI) is planning a mega auction in November ahead of the 2026 season, marking the league’s first major reset since its launch in 2023.
All five franchises are now waiting for clarity on crucial details including the number of player retentions, auction purse, retention slabs, and Right-to-Match (RTM) card options. These will be finalised by the WPL committee, though no meeting date has been confirmed yet.
The upcoming season’s schedule is also under wraps, but it’s expected to stick to its usual January February window.
